Cen Zhen did not hesitate. “He’s my husband!”
She thought saying this would make Liu Chuan think twice, but instead, he threw his head back and laughed uproariously.
Once he started laughing, the people around him joined in.
“Are you kidding? It seems like every girl on the street is dreaming of Fu Linyuan. Who do you think you are? You’re just a lowly delivery girl. How could he possibly be interested in you!”
“Yeah, stop dreaming. Just give in to our Brother Chuan. He knows how to treat a woman right.”
“…”
The men’s laughter around her was particularly unrestrained and arrogant, and the way they looked at her was no different from how they would look at a clown.
Cen Zhen held her breath, trying her best to stay calm. “If you don’t believe me, I can call him right now.”
Her words were met with a cold sneer.
Liu Chuan reached out with his grubby hands and began tugging at her clothes.
“You bitch, don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do. You want to call the police, right? Let me tell you, no way!”
After he growled these words, he began frantically tearing at Cen Zhen’s clothes.
His foul-smelling mouth also tried to force kisses on her exposed skin. “You little slut, just give in to me…”
“Get away! Let go of me—”
Every inch of Cen Zhen’s muscles resisted the man’s approach.
She used both her hands and feet, kicking and twisting desperately.
During the struggle, her hair became disheveled and clung to her face, and tears of fear involuntarily streamed down.
Not far away, in a sofa booth, a man with dyed pink hair saw this and clicked his tongue lightly.
“Aye, aren’t you going to stop this?”
The man he called “Aye,” holding a glass of red wine between his fingertips, glanced up at the chaotic scene in the distance. He merely brought the glass to his lips unhurriedly and took a slow, deliberate sip.
“No rush.”
Seeing how cold and detached he was, Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but click his tongue.
“Isn’t she still your sister-in-law? Can you really just stand by and watch her be defiled by those scumbags?”
After the wine went down his throat, Fu Ye lazily raised an eyebrow and looked at him, his peach blossom eyes filled with nothing but indifferent calculation.
“Only when someone is pulled from the depths of despair and helplessness will they firmly remember that favor.”
Jiang Xiao gave him a thumbs-up.
“Impressive!”
During the struggle, Cen Zhen’s clothes had already been torn off until only her underwear remained, and she had been slapped several times across the face.
Just as her strength was gradually waning and she thought she couldn’t escape this ordeal, a lazy voice suddenly rang out.
“Did you get my permission to do something like this in my establishment?”
As the voice sounded,
everyone instinctively turned to look.
When they saw Fu Ye’s carefree and arrogant face, they were momentarily stunned.
“Fu… Young Master Fu, how come you…”
Before Liu Chuan could finish, Fu Ye stepped forward with his hands in his pockets. He glanced indifferently at Cen Zhen, who was hugging herself with her arms crossed.
Then, he looked coldly at Liu Chuan’s lower half, where his pants zipper was undone, and curled his lips into a mocking smile.
“I wasn’t aware that my club allowed uncivilized beasts to run around freely in heat.”
His words were too pointed.
Instantly, Liu Chuan’s face turned beet red.
Overcome with rage, he pointed a finger at Fu Ye in frustration. “You…”
“Me?”
Fu Ye chuckled lightly.
But the smile didn’t reach his eyes.
“I really was quite unethical last time. You crippled someone right under my nose, and I actually turned a blind eye. Thinking back on it now, I truly regret it. I should have taken the video straight to the police.”
Meeting Liu Chuan’s eyes, filled with both hatred and fear, he curved his lips into a smile. “After all, if a beast isn’t civilized, it needs to be locked up to behave.”
“Don’t you agree?”
Liu Chuan felt utterly humiliated by these insulting words.
He clenched his teeth, his eyes boiling with overwhelming hatred, wishing he could tear the man apart and devour him whole.
But the gap between their families was too vast.
His own family had power and influence; whenever he caused trouble outside, they would always handle it properly.
But Fu Ye bore the surname Fu. If they were to clash head-on, he wouldn’t even know how he died.
Moreover, Fu Ye now held leverage over him.
Considering this, his rationality gradually returned. Lowering the finger he had been itching to use in a fight, he forced an awkward smile and stepped forward.
“Brother Ye, we’re all brothers here. Just now, I was…”
“Who the hell is your brother?”
The smile vanished from Fu Ye’s lips.
At that moment, Jiang Xiao burst out laughing. Looking at the stunned Liu Chuan, he kindly reminded him, “Our Ah Ye doesn’t have the habit of making brothers with beasts.”
“…”
As someone who valued face, Liu Chuan felt his anger, which he had just suppressed, flare up again at such an insult.
He rushed up to Fu Ye, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets. “Fu Ye, don’t you dare disrespect me when I’m giving you face!”
Fu Ye didn’t even spare him a glance, instead toying with the lighter in his palm. He merely called out Jiang Xiao’s name in a low voice.
With years of brotherly understanding
“Then I’ll see you out.”
This club looked upscale, but after what had just happened, Cen Zhen had experienced firsthand how mixed the crowd inside could be.
She didn’t refuse, only thanked him again.
When Wen Zhiyun received a call from the club bartender saying Qiao Jialv was drunk, she had cursed her way over almost the entire journey.
As the car arrived at Cloud Peak Club, she stared at the prominent logo in her view.
Gripping the steering wheel, she couldn’t help grinding her teeth. “Damn you, Qiao Jialv! Of all the places you could drink, you had to come to Fu Ye’s place to give him business. Don’t you know he and my brother are like fire and water?”
Just as she was passionately venting, two familiar figures suddenly appeared at the club entrance.
At first, she thought she had cursed herself into a hallucination.
Looking closer, she realized the two people standing at the entrance were indeed Cen Zhen and Fu Ye.
The moment she saw them clearly, a surge of inexplicable anger shot straight to her chest. “So it’s you, Cen Zhen! I was actually planning to apologize to you, but I never expected you were sent by Fu Ye to get close to my brother!”
